Ubuntu Networking :: Connect Samba Through SSH Tunnel?

Nov 13, 2010

I have a server running Ubuntu Server 10.04 that is a VirtualBox/Samba/SSH server. I have port forwarding set up for ports 22 and 3389 (SSH and RDP) and I want to access the Samba share without opening any other ports. I can connect to it from my internal network, but I want to be able to access it from school. My best guess would be to tunnel the Samba port through SSH, but I don't know how. I will be connecting to it from Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop.

Ubuntu Networking :: Connect Through A Tunnel On A Different Server?

Jul 19, 2011

I use two Ubuntu machines, one at home and one at work. In order to connect to the machine at work from home I need to connect through a "tunnel server" that controls all the traffic to the machines at work.I am able to connect with ssh to the tunnel server and from the tunnel server ssh my own machine at work. My question is how do I retrieve files form my work machine to the home machine. How do I sync folders between the machines using rsync when the "tunnel server" is in between?

Networking :: Connect To Windows Domain Via VPN Tunnel

Mar 16, 2011

I have my home network (connected to internet via VPN) and my "MS-based" work network (opened to internet via VPN). In windows I can easily create two VPN connections to enter my Work domain, but how can I do that in Linux? Network Manager allows only one VPN connection... The best way is to create pptp tunnel over configured in Network Manager ppp0. I've googled a lot but still didn't find any working example.

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Connect To Samba Share

Mar 4, 2010

I am running Jaunty 9.0.4. I used system-config-samba (gui) to configure Samba. I put myself as a user and tried to map the drive from my local PC. I am unable to map the drive. On windows, I try to connect using a different user and when I select finish, it prompts me again and adds my workgroup before my user name.

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba - Connect With One Hostname But Not Another

Jan 27, 2011

Here is what I am trying to do. I set up a Samba server on Ubuntu 10.10, which seems to be working (sort of).

I set it up using Webmin, which has always worked for me before.

I set up two shares, both of which are read/write and are allowing any hosts. And are set up using the default samba configuration that is provided by Webmin.

For privacy reasons I won't disclose the domains, but I will call them test.abc.com and xyz.com

I set up /media/mount as a share called [mount_a] and I also set up /media/mount_b as [mount_b]

The server's host name in my internal network is mount-box

I originally mapped it to a sub-domain of my domain abc.com via DNS, so that test.abc.com resolves to the IP address of my router; which has all the necesarry port forwarding set up.

In windows explorer in the remote location I tested it by using \test.abc.compoonani_a, this works fine and after a password prompt I can access my files. However, I do not want to use this domain name for this server, so I registered a new domain name and again via DNS mapped domain xyz.com to the IP address of my router.

Since setting up the new hostname, I cannot connect to it via Windows to access the samba share. It just won't work. When I try to connect the password prompt appears and I put in my credentials, when I submit it the window re-appears and it has appended the servername xyz.com before the username, so it reads \xyz.com<myusername>, but won't let me connect.

If I try again with the previous hostname test.abc.com, it works fine.

What am I doing wrong that it would let me connect with one hostname, and not another.

Ubuntu Networking :: Connect To Samba Server With Xubuntu?

Nov 14, 2010

I am trying to connect to my samba server with xubuntu, so far with no luck.

I am trying to use fusesmb and have been following these instructions:

[URL]

as well as these:

[URL]

and these

[URL]

the top ones say to use Applications - System - shared folders to setup smb client. Xubuntu maverick doesn't seem to have that menu point. So I copied the smb.conf from my desktop machine. libsmbclient is installed.

fuse as such seems to run since teh folder that i designated as mount point (~/Network) changes owner to root when i run fusesmb Network. But apart from that nothing happens.

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba Connect Only Works With IP Address

Feb 13, 2011

I have a problem with Samba. I've already configured my SMB.conf file, but I can't connect to my Windows shares by their host name. for example: if I try to connect to GDEA73-PC-1 share = netshare, server connection fails. if I try to connect to 192.168.1.171 then share = netshare, it works. How do I fix this? When I run findsmb, I am on the GDEA73 NETWORK workgroup as I configured, but my local PC is the only one on it...

Ubuntu Networking :: Can No Longer Connect To WHS Samba Share

Jun 1, 2011

I'm running 10.10 on a pretty fresh install with a brand new system I built especially for Ubuntu.For some reason, I'm beginning to have trouble with accessing my Samba shares from this computer. I have a Windows Home Server also running on my network and I have to be able to access the files on it.At first Nautilus showed "SERVER" in the folder tree when I clicked on "Network" and everything was working great. A couple of days ago my WHS "SERVER" suddenly no longer showed up in Nautilus and I had to mount the WHS server manually (via "Connect to Server...").

Now, today, even that doesn't work. When I try to mount manually I get the error "Failed to Retrieve Share List from Server". I can now no longer access the WHS from Ubuntu at all.Why has my ability to access the Samba shares on my WHS deteriorated over time to the point where I can't access them at all?? Any ideas?I have other systems on this network (Mac and Windows) and none of the others have any problems at all with the WHS. Re-booting WHS and router has no effect. I've changed nothing in my set-up. Is this update related?

Fedora Networking :: Can't Even Get Samba To Connect

May 20, 2009

I recently have just started using linux and downloaded Fedora 10 and I'm trying to figure out how to fileshare and print share with my windows vista machine.I edited the registry file on my Vista machine HKEY_ LOCAL_ MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetContro lLsaLMCompatibilityLevel and changed the level from 3 to 1.I've also gone through a lot of tutorials on editing the smb.conf file and set my workgroup name, netbios, and changed permissions on my linux machine (a Lenovo netbook) etc but thats about as far as I can get. This may sound like a dumb question but I can't even get samba to connect on my linux machine so how do I do that?

I was wondering if any of you guys can provide a solution as to how to connect or direct me to a good howto for setting up and using Samba seeing how I'm a noob.I've been on Samba.org already and I'm more confused than ever.

I'm not sure if this is even possible and I've tired searching, but I can't seem to figure it out. I have a few shares setup in Samba. I want them to prompt for a username and password. If an invalid user/pass is entered I want the user to be authenticated as a guest.

Ubuntu Networking :: Vista Unable To Connect To Samba Printer

I'm having some problems with sharing my printer via SAMBA. Connected to my Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop is a HP office-jet D135 witch I shared via samba. I have no problems printing from my Ubuntu laptop.

But ones i try to access the printer I get a pop-up window telling me: "unable tot connect to printer error code 0x00000709 check if the name is correct or if the printer is connected to the network" ( but of course in Dutch). What is going wrong here?My /etc/samba/smb.conf

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.04 Can't Connect To Internet After Setting Static IP For Samba

May 17, 2010

I recently used this process to connect my Samba network to be able to access and allow Windows XP machines to access my computer on my office network.

For various reasons, all the XP computers on the network are set to fixed (do we say static?) IP addresses with manual DNS. Hence I realised during the Samba setup that I had to set a static IP on my Ubuntu machine similar to my Windows static IP's (ie 192.168.10.?) in order to be able to see the Windows share PC's properly.

Once I set my Ubuntu machine to static IP of 192.168.10.3 with subnet of 255.255.255.0 and gateway of 192.168.0.1 then I was able to access and be accessed by PC's on the network. However I couldn't access the internet after this. I input the DNS server in the edit connections as you can see per the attachment. All these settings (except the IP address obviously) were all now exactly the same as the PC machines, and I thought I'd now be able to access the windows network, as well as have access to the internet, however, even though my wired network is connected there is still no internet access.

I'm using the GUI under network connections to make all these changes if that is important. I can't understand why this doesn't work?

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba: Unable To Mount Location - Can't Connect To Vista PC

Mar 27, 2010

I have noticed that I am not the first one to have problems with samba and connecting to a Windows PC. I have read so many articles and I have tried a couple of things that seemed to make sense, but no luck.

I can connect from my Vista to my Ubuntu netbook remix, but not the other way around. I get the error message: "Unable to mount location", "failed to mount windows share" and I get "mount error 12 = Cannot allocate memory" in Smb4K.

There was a suggestion that "mount error 12 = Cannot allocate memory" indicated it was a problem originating in Vista, but the added registry values on my Vista PC that was suggested didn't change anything. I have also read and [URL] and implemented 3.1 and 3.2 but it made no difference either.

Ubuntu Networking :: Windows PC Doesn't See Samba Share But Can Connect Manually

I'm running Lucid and and trying to get Samba set up to allow sharing files on my network. My problem is that my Windows laptop (Win7) can't see the Linux PC when I click on Network. It only shows my own laptop and my roommate's Vista laptop. However, if I manually connect to the computer (\serenity) it works just fine.

Right now I'm simply using the smb.conf that comes with the package and adding my share info.

Ubuntu Networking :: Connect To A Samba Share, It Requires To Send The Servernetbiosname?

May 12, 2011

When trying to connect to a Samba share, it requires to send the servernetbiosname. Let me try to describe it.At my university anyone has a personal web directory, which is hosted at another university. It's on a SuSE server, shared via Samba. There are several universities on this server, using the same Samba with different NetBIOS names.There is an open Cisco WiFi, anyone can connect. But to use it, you have to use VPN (Anyconnect for example or in my case the module Ubuntu provides).Now my problem is, I can't easily connect to any share on the server (tried several shares from several machine to be sure it's not just me). After trying several variants on bash, I finally figured out, that I have to supply the servernetbiosname to get it to work.Not working:

Code:
root@cmp:~# mount.cifs //svr1.sd.domain.net/htdocs /tmp/mnttst/ -o 'user=uname,domain=DOM' -v

Software :: MySQL Cannot Start SSH Tunnel Manager - Cannot Connect To Database Server

Ubuntu Networking :: Mount Samba Share - Connect - Read And Write From Other Apps

Mar 9, 2010

I have a networked raid drive. Thecus 2100. Its running linux, and includes samba sharing. On that I have a folder shared. I can connect to and read and write from nautilus. No problems. However, I can't use other apps through that method. Its not really "mounting" that drive in the sense you'd normally think of (afaik).

If I try to mount the folder, no matter how I have tried so far (-t cifs, smbmount, etc), I can navigate the folders, but if I try to read any file I get a permission error. Looking at the permissions with 'ls -l', everything looks OK. The weird thing is, I can write a file, then read that file back as long as its the same session.

Just now I tried 'smbclient' with no special arguments. Just the server and path url. It asked for my password. Once I was in, I had no trouble getting files. I had a thread about this a while back and there were several links and all sorts of command line options to try, which I did, with no different outcome. I think its got to be something much simpler and more obvious. smbclient and nautilus seem to have no trouble. Anybody know what they're doing differently?

Ubuntu Networking :: How To Create SSH Tunnel

Aug 3, 2011

I wanted to create an ssh tunnel but I do not know what commands to run .. my environment is as follows:
LAN Internet Office LAN
Home PC <-> Linux firewall <-> http server..

According to the above what I figure is that I have an internal web server at my job and I need to create a tunnel to access the web server from my PC in my home. I know I can do a port forwarding with the firewall but I don't want to publish this web server to Internet. My home PC and both servers (firewall and web) are ubuntu. My idea is create a ssh tunnel that forward port 8080 on localhost in my home pc, to the firewall (obviously with public ip), and the the firewall forward to port 80 on office web server at my job. Note that the firewall accepts ssh connections to port 22, same for web server...

Ubuntu Networking :: Browsing Via SSH Tunnel Very Slow

I have compression enabled, tried restarting ssh, and rebooting the server but it remains so sluggish. At home the connection is quick but the speed is lost in translation once I ssh in. I also tried adding "UseDNS no" to the ssh config but that did not help with the slow login or any other speed issues.
